Brimham Rocks
On the day manifested as a very tranquil venue - outside of school and bank holiday mayhem. Plenty of esoterica to go at but in the interest of efficiency and fun stuck to the usual circuit - Cubic Block, Cannon Rock, Lover's Leap and finishing off at Fag Slab up at the far end.
Great Slab makes a great warm up
In-situ rope anchor helped with abseil action
Good to get familiar
But not too familiar!
BP squares up to the high moves on Cubic Corner
Hola Maloja
The crack seemed ready to accept a range of gear but turned out to be choosy.
A few more moves lead to more accomodating situations
BP makes it all look very straightforward
(according to visiting photographer!)

Three clever friends cover the moves up the open groove
Pig Traverse
Multiple factors combined to force a retreat from the crux
Inc.
But not limited to:
Nesting Birds
Dirty Holds
Lack of Gumption
Smoked a way up Fag End as a bold alt-route
Fag Slab
Well chuffed with a great day
